Site Selection PASTA V Article
SCORE Brief – Retail and Restaurant Site Selection
Too often, people who are looking for locations for their retail and restaurant businesses end up doing too much by themselves. Given the complexities and time associated with finding “Home Run” locations, this can turn out to be a costly mistake – one which can produce a series of negative consequences. The solution; employ the services of LDA.
When looking for “Home Run” locations, retail and restaurant decision makers shouldn’t overlook the option of working with two important resource groups: commercial real estate agents, and consultants who possess both a passion for and expertise in retail and restaurant site selection. Both of these important resource groups can help you negotiate the most favorable rents as well as the most favorable build out and tenant improvement allowances. In addition, consultants such as LDA are accustomed to advising you on lease provisions which can potentially keep you out of trouble.
